KEMEROVO, Russia — A fresh row of graves in a cemetery in Kemerovo attests to the grief of this Russian city. Entire families who died trapped inside the fire-engulfed Winter Cherry mall are buried here: a 5-year-old girl, her mother and grandmother; a mother and a 9-year-old daughter. Some of the families have still to wait weeks before they can bury their loved ones. “Now I have to wait three weeks because they are burnt so much you cannot identify them,” he said. Tatyana Stupel, whose neighbour’s daughter died at the mall, placed a poster at the memorial along with flowers.
